Anuyone had failures in updating to SP6? It corrupted our VW and we had to roll back to SP5
It did a similar thing to what happened when I updated to SP5. Progress bar got to 100%, then went past 100% and took away from the left side of the progress bar but only a few percent this time rather than 140%. Then it showed an error, and when I tried to run the update again it said I was up-to-date and already had SP6. Will let you know if I see anything glitchy once I get to use it again.

Redshift appears to support displacement mapping outside of Vectorworks. Is this functionality expected to be implemented in future releases?

I have come back to this post a lot. It has helped tremendously. I appreciate the information on minimum recommendations. I would be interested in knowing when enough is enough though? I am looking at workstations lately fearing that I might need to replace my current machine that is having some hiccups (got a great deal on a refurb, but I think it is starting to show its age.)
Granted, I am digging deeper into some other software now that will also influence my decisions. I am starting to use Blender more, and of course Illustrator and Photoshop-- sometimes having all of them open at the same time. But any recommendations of how much is too much would be beneficial. I want to find enough of a workstation to future proof myself for a little while, but I also don't want to saddle myself with a machine that I need to keep forever because I paid too much chasing specs that don't matter.
Also, where do other operations happen, i.e. deform, stitch/trim surfaces, extrude along path, conversion to nurbs or solids, etc.
